After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He would not go about in Judea because the Jews were seeking to kill him. Now the Jews' Feast of Booths was at hand. So his brothers said to him, "Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples also may see the works you are doing. For no one works in secret if he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world." For not even his brothers believed in him.
Isn't this a warning that those who know us best are the most cynical about the reality of our transformation. We would not be surprised when we get an "Yah, sure!" reaction from close friends and family.
Our Lord did and He did not have to demonstrate transformation for He is without sin.
